The incidence and severity of RDS decreased when labor was postponed for a period

Costs of unnecessary admissions and treatments for “threatened preterm labor”

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2013
Cervical length (CL) of 3 cm or greater has been shown to have a 97-99% negative predictive value for preterm delivery in women with threatened preterm labor. Consequently, hospitalization and treatment are not indicated in these patients. We analyzed how often patients with a CL of 3 cm or greater are still being admitted and treated for preterm labor
